This 2006 team is a complete disaster !

Im sorry, and please feel free to flame me if you like but honestly at this point We absolutely are a complete and total nightmare. We can't throw, we cant run with any consistency, our special teams are ridiculously bad, our OL can't block anyone, our QB shouldn't have even played and the fact that he did and threw 4 interceptions is just pathetic, and our defense has too many penalties !!

We just simply cannot put together a series of good plays without shooting ourselves in the foot. We have stupid penalites, we're terrible in the red zone, we gives games away. We cannot win in this league playing like we are this year, and the schedule isn't getting any easier.

We just blew 1st and goal inside the 5 yd line. 4 chances to get a TD and we go backwards. Game, set, match to the Raiders.

This team absolutely cannot get out of its own way !

#1 BC went from his hurry up offense to a power game soon as we got to the goal. Never should of done that. We don't have a power game and you don't punch it in from there with "the wind knocks me over" Parker. What the hell we bother to waste money signing Davenport for if we don't use him there.

#2 Another stupid penalty

#3 Should have went play action on the first 2 tries

My first comment is part of what is wrong with this team. Cowher is stuck on last year but doesn't have the players to do what we did last year.

Yea I don't knock Willie at all. Davenport got stuffed on that 3rd and short. He sure didn't have any burst or power at all. Its just a mess right now.

That had nothing to do with his burst or power. He couldn't even get started before he was hit 4 yds in the backfield. That's the line on that play.
I know what you are saying TG but Davenport should be used more throughout the game.

I agree with you SA.. Davenport should be used more, because you can't expect a cold player to come in and make plays whether the OL is blocking or not. He's got be in some sort of a rythmn to be effective. Sorry if I mislead you on my thoughts..but you know Im as pissed off as you are now.

It falls on the shoulders of Cowher and the coaching staff for not using him more as much as it falls on the players in general for not performing.

Davenport was slow in hitting that hole. Oh sorry to disagree with the head of SteelerAddicts. Watch the film again. Davenport is slow and soft. Sure you knock Willie Parker and do not fault the Oline. But its the Oline's fault for Davenport being stuffed. If Davenport was this great RB then why did the Pacekers cut him.
